Would be failed assassin Ryan Routh is sentenced to life in prison for failing to kill President Trump with no shots fired.

According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics, in the United States, the average time served for murder or non-negligent manslaughter is approximately 11 to 15 years in state prison before initial release. In California, the sentences range from 3 to 11 years.

Right here in Broome County, a man driving drunk, with nearly 4-times the legal limit of blood-alcohol, struck and killed a police officer with his car and served less than 5-years in prison. So tell me, how is “justice” being served for Mr. Routh?

Just another example of how society does value lives very differently.
